Summary

This study, as a prospective, randomized, controlled, non-inferiority, international multicenter clinical trial, aims to evaluate whether a strategy of no antimicrobial prophylaxis is non-inferior to the traditional single-dose prophylaxis regimen in patients with a low risk of infection undergoing single-use flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy combined with a flexible negative-pressure suction sheath. It is anticipated that this will have a substantial impact on infection prevention strategies in urological surgery.

Conditions

  • Urolithiasis
  • Antibiotics

Interventions

DRUG

not use any prophylactic antimicrobials

The experimental group will undergo surgery without the use of any prophylactic antimicrobials; therapeutic antimicrobials will only be administered postoperatively to patients who develop signs or symptoms of infection. The control group will receive a single dose of intravenous prophylactic antimicrobials 30-60 minutes before surgery, followed by the same standardized surgical procedure.

DRUG

use prophylactic antimicrobials

Receive a single dose of intravenous prophylactic antimicrobials (e.g., a second-generation cephalosporin or levofloxacin) 30-60 minutes before surgery, followed by the same standardized flexible negative-pressure sheath ureteroscopic surgery.
